Abstract

From the time various researchers started arguing that leadership can be learned and taught, there has been an emergence of the area of study called business education (also known as management education). Due to the evident dynamic nature of business, the curriculum of business education also should be dynamic. The objective of this paper is to analyze the trends in management education and to check the alignment of courses in management education internationally, nationally and regionally. Findings suggest that globally there is more emphasis given to reinforcing skills that are employed in the workplace with focus on leadership, decision making and interpersonal skills than hard skills. Regional institutes though aligned nationally should aspire to align with the global trends as students from all institutes are supposedly globally competitive and are being placed with global companies.
